With the StarLadder Invitationals going on right now, professional teams the world over are competing for slots to the upcoming Major tier tournament in Kiev. But that doesn’t mean you need to be left out.

For the Dota 2 fans who want to challenge themselves, head over to TNC’s High Grounds Café on Saturday, September 30.

A New Challenge

That’s because High Grounds is hosting the Challenge Accepted tournament! It’s an open tournament with no registration fee whatsoever, so anyone can get in on the action.

And the best part? The tournament features a whopping P50,000 prize pool. As far as open tournaments go, that’s an almost unprecedented amount up for grabs.

The prize pool distribution is as follows:

1st Place: 25,000

2nd Place: 10,000

3rd and 4th Place: 5,000 each

5th – 9th place: 1,000 each

Top Tier Shoutcasters

But that’s not all. The whole tournament will be casted by Tier One Entertainment’s roster of shoutcasters. All your favorite faces from WomboxCombo will be calling the action, from Jaz “Heneral Tuna” Comoda to Nico “KuyaNic” Nazario himself. And who knows, maybe Biancake and Tryke will make an appearance as well?

This is a great opportunity for anyone in the Dota community to try their hand at competing on stage. Think you’ve got what it takes? Then accept the challenge and head over to High Grounds at the end of the month.

Registration will be on-site, so be sure to show up early. The tournament will start at 11am.
